>Diversity and inclusion are essential, and should be reflected not only in the job posting but throughout this process. I encourage managers to use take-home exercises as a delta for talking points rather than a pass/fail test. Why? Because you can get deeply skilled engineers who can crush code, but it’s not the only thing that matters in most cases. Strong disagree. I would instantly decline an interview with any company that expected me to do my interview work at home. I'm not going to work at a company that expects me to work off my scheduled hours. Moreover, I find it quite ironic that this take-home interview is somehow supportive of "diversity and inclusion". It seems to me that the people most likely to not have the time to do their interview at home are people with families, and especially women, who often are responsible for much of the house/family work during their non-salaried hours.
